It is likely that those aren't related. Mine K6-2/500, which I had
while back, was also causing SIG 11, due to overheating. Another
possible reason is memory - you should check that you have PC100,
not PC66 installed, because K6-2/400 runs with 100MHz FSB.

In this case, the possible overheating is eliminated by keeping the
case fully opened but it doesn't help much.
